Border guards continue to detain state border violators. However, if we compare the statistics of 2022 and 2023, we can observe a downward trend in attempts to illegally leave the territory of Ukraine, Demchenko noted.
In addition, the number of attempts to illegally cross the border through the green line has decreased recently due to weather conditions. Instead, more people have started trying to leave using forged documents.
